Does anyone have a problem with there parachute not opening on the upper level of factory? That place where you spawn towards the wide open front door at top, try to jump to the lower part and open your shoot instead over walking over and going down the stairs?
Happens all the dam time and I'm getting sick of it, happens about 5 times in a game sometimes...

That will often happen because you are too close to the wall. The parachute is treated as an object in game, so if you try to make that object "spawn" by hitting 9 when you are too close to a wall, it won't work.

Exactly. Had that problem loads of times, where I jumped down a mountain and ended up painting the pavement.

It happens all across the top level, I'm at the railing when I jump over and hit (9) 10 times on my way down and nothing happens... But sometimes it will open jumping from the same place.

He's talking about that standard building which you find on many maps. The one most people will know is the Warehouse flag on Karkand.

Just look out straight as you can (be perpendicular to the wall youre jumping from) sprint and jump out as far as your can and spam the chute button. Try it on SP a few times

Lie down.

As for parachutes, sprint + jump.

My state was founded by Batman. Your opinion is invalid.

True.
The parachute can't if you're too close to a wall.
E.g. in the alleyway between Hotel and Square on Karkand or on Great Wall if you jump from one of the towers and are too close to both the tower and the wall.

I changed my parachute key to the spacebar (manually editing the file). Works great.
